I first posted this on the PC board. Gordo suggested I put it on here too.....
Following on from Holi's "Dear Kelly" thread and the ambitions for 2011 thread.
In 2011 I want to get back into doing more with the horses, eventually getting back to riding. At the moment I really only groom them a bit, and that not every day. They're out 24/7 so I don't "need" to do much with them. They're healthy and happy as field ornaments but I'm getting frustrated and fed up with myself because I have 2 lovely, safe, sensible horses and do nothing with them. It's not lack of confidence in the sense that I am worried about being hurt. It's the feeling that I am not good enough - I can't do anything perfectly so it's best I don't do anything at all. I know this is garbage but it still holds me back, in many areas of my life, not just horses and riding. I just put up obstacles for myself all the time and don't push myself enough
So, the request....
Would anyone like/be willing to have a regular contact via the DG, pm or e-mail where we support and encourage each other in things horsey or otherwise, maybe using questions in the way Kelly described in the "Dear Kelly" thread?
I know I should be able to just post on here but sometimes I feel my concerns are so pathetic I'm too embarrassed to go public
thanks for reading
